Product Features
Versatile Tooth Profile
The 5GAF2 Draghead Flare Tooth Point is part of a multi-type system including flare, chisel, and pick points. The flare design is ideal for soft soils such as peat, sand, and light clay, ensuring efficient dredging with minimal resistance.
OEM Compatibility
Designed to fit ESCO-style cutter heads, the 5GAF2 ensures precise and secure installation. It supports replacement in standard mounting systems, reducing downtime and eliminating the need for major system changes.
Wear-Resistant Steel Construction
Crafted with high-grade alloy steel, the tooth point offers exceptional resistance to abrasion and impact. It prolongs service life even in extreme underwater conditions, reducing frequency of part changes.
Special Mounting Geometry
The unique tooth base design promotes a tighter grip and stability under heavy loads, preventing vibration and premature wear, especially during high-speed cutter rotation.
Product Advantages
Longer Operational Life
Compared with traditional dredging teeth, the 5GAF2 flare point delivers extended durability. Its advanced wear alloy minimizes erosion in abrasive dredging environments, reducing operational costs.
01
Adaptability Across Machines
Applicable on dredging wheels, dragheads, and cutter heads, it supports multiple marine vessel setups, making it a go-to choice for contractors with varied fleets.
02
Less Downtime, Higher Output
The reliable performance ensures fewer interruptions for maintenance or replacement. More uptime means higher productivity and faster project completion.
03
Operational Safety
Secure tooth locking reduces the risk of parts loosening or breaking off during operation, safeguarding personnel and equipment.
04
Environmentally Friendly Coating
Each tooth can be delivered with a non-toxic, anti-corrosion coating that extends storage life and reduces environmental risk.
05
Precautions for Use
Choose the Right Tooth Type for the Job
Avoid using the 5GAF2 flare tooth in dense rock environments-opt for chisel or pick point alternatives for such conditions.
Follow Correct Mounting Procedures
Improper installation can cause the tooth to loosen under stress, leading to equipment failure. Refer to the mounting manual.
Replace When Wear Indicators Show
Built-in wear marks allow for quick visual inspection. Replace before these limits are reached to maintain efficiency.
FAQ
Q: Is the 5GAF2 Draghead Flare Tooth Point compatible with ESCO systems?
A: Certainly, the 5GAF2 Draghead Flare Tooth Point is intended to supersede ESCO-style cutter teeth and is used with VOSTA and IHC systems which are common in dredging works, hence is not contraindicated.
Q: What material is used for the 5GAF2 tooth point production?
A: The 5GAF2 is produced using a wear-resistant alloy steel that is tough and resistant to mechanical abrasion strengthening processes, providing remarkable hardness and toughness which extends its durability.
Q: Are tooth points designed for use with dragheads suitable for hard materials such as rock?
A: No, especially flare types do not work for hard rock. We recommend the chisel (5GAC2) or pick (5GAP2) type teeth for these rocky or heavily compacted conditions.
Q: How do I maintain the 5GAF2 tooth point?
A: Routine inspection after each use, proper cleaning, and checking for wear indicators are essential. Significant wear should not be visibly apparent before the component is replaced.
